Please. Give me some credit.
I recognize the bits, was hoping it would recognize the mix, but no.

I need a new grill. But that's better which is the neighbor needing a new fence.

Went to grill ribs tonight. The grill is old but it's been limping along for a fair bit. The heat plate shields had rusted and two of them had fallen. I never really knew what they were there for. I do now. It prevents the grease and stuff from falling onto the flames and causing a conflagration. Which is exactly what happened. Fire was shooting out of the sides about a foot at one point. I ran in the house and got an extinguisher. I was able to save all but 3 of the ribs but the grill itself is a danger to myself and the neighborhood.

Slight necro to this comment. Kerri has been complaining over lack of grill so I worked a shift or two and picked up a new Blackstone 36” flat griddle. Guy at work helped me get it home. Brought it in. My wife: That’s not a Mother’s Day gift. That for a dad. It’s like you got me a drill.

This from the person who has been complaining since August that we didn’t have one. So I guess I’m just a piece of shit.

Depending on the bank, we don't see the payment for at least 3-5 business days. A lot of customers aren't aware of that, so they're shocked when their services are suspended due to non-payments because the payment didn't go through yet.
